Forecasts

Doctor Steinberg (1/3), Rapid Redemption (9/2), Ned In The Park (13/2), Jisco Du Brem (17/2), Go To Town (10/1), Jurado (14/1), Rosie's Wings (16/1), Hickeys Hill (16/1), Durbani (80/1), Mystical Sandmason (100/1), Townscupsixtythree (150/1), Kilmore Dragon (150/1)

DOCTOR STEINBERG is taken to go one better than at Clonmel in March. Gordon Elliott newcomer Rapid Redemption would rate a possible threat if the betting speaks in his favour. Jurado has the potential to build on his opening run at Kilbeggan last month, while the fact Jisco du Brem went off a short-priced favourite on last summer's Wexford debut suggests he's thought capable of better than he showed on that occasion.
